I'm a reading specialist and award winning educator from Chicago. While living in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado for nine years, I spent time hiking on the trails with my Goldendoodle Charlie and friends, writing, working in a literacy program at the Boulder Public Library, and mentoring writers and teachers. I love visiting schools. My books combine STEM and Kindness. "Aliana Reaches for the Moon" a picture book that draws inspiration from the moon and the curiosity of children, inviting children to be creative, explore, and experiment. "An Accidental Hero: A Mostly True Wombat Story" a picture book told in the form of a newscast which skillfully balances the serious subject of forest fires with compassion and humor to help children navigate this important topic through the real events of 2020. I moved to Northern New Jersey in 2025 and am working on new projects.

    1. Thank you! It was cloudy early and when I was driving home it became brighter with every mile. There’s a spot about 1/10 of a mile from my house where I had a clear view (no trees or mountains in the way) so I pulled over and took some shots. This one was the most interesting.

    1. Thank you! I was very pleased with this one because it showed some interesting detail. I took a few photographs on Sunday night that show the moon and Jupiter. I was hoping to capture Saturn too, but it didn’t happen.
